LEZ to be used as a tax collection device

Brian Paddick has shown he is no more a friend of London than is Mayor Ken Livingstone. It seems that he plans to charge anyone from outside of London £10 to enter the Low Emmissions Zone. He said ""A Greater London congestion charge will have a real impact on congestion and pollution. This is about getting people out of their cars and on to public transport." The man is clearly as out of touch with reality as is Mayor Ken; the tubes are full, so are the buses and people want to use their cars. He has also vowed to scrap the LEZ claiming it puts small businesses at risk - a good idea, just a shame how much money Ken has wasted on setting up the scheme, but that's what Ken is good at - wasting Londoners' money. Another of Mr Paddick's "ideas" is to bring in a "women friendly" carriage on every Tube running from 9pm to closing time seven days a week. A similar scheme would operate on the top 10 most dangerous bus routes, which would carry transport police on late-night journeys. Fantastic, will I as a mere male be allowed a discount as I will not be able to use 100% of the carriages? Why does Brian Paddick not care about men's safety on the tube, just womens? Who are more likely to be victims of violence on the tube, men or women?
